I’m pretty worried about the possibility of Super rugby not being in the game. To not have the premier rugby competition for the southern hemisphere will be pretty disappointing, especially from a Australian based developer, and not just from a gaming point of view, but you would have to think it’ll affect it from a sales point of view as well with those in the southern hemisphere. I know the fan hub will help, but its so much better having fully licensed teams, kits etc.
I’ve asked the place I pre-ordered the game from if they’ve received physical copies of the game yet ahead of the games release on the 30th. I’ll report back when/if I get an answer.
You wonder why Nacon doesn’t say this? They have to know their games aren’t ready, so why wait until the last minute (or even after release date in,Tiebreak’s case) to share this info? It’s baffling and shouldn’t be tolerated in such a consumer driven industry.
Just be mindful that Big Ant and Nacon never said anything about Tiebreak being delayed from November/December….the date just sort of came and went, and then suddenly the early access leaked (which forced their hand). And technically even that has missed its date with no mention. Point being, them not saying anything is by no means a sign that it hasn’t been delayed.
Thats it! Hes building the ultimate of ultimate teams to dominate online at launch. And grinding out duplicate cards to control the auction market costs on launch. Case solved
What are they going to do, delay it until the Rugby Championship in August!
The whole thing is actually getting beyond ludicrous now, making both companies look a bit amateurish to be honest.
I’m still holding on to the slim hope it’s out at the end of the month, especially after going back to RLL4 for a while and nearly throwing my controller through the TV, that game is annoying!!!
Rll4 in my opinion is great, it has some probleam but overall is great and it’s fun even though it’s Rugby Leauge.
Rugby 22 is the opposite of RC4 in terms of rugby gameplay. It’s slow, a bit more realistic but has to offer less;
There is no “not realising” in the gameplay;
In the game no pro carrer and no carrer mode that is longer then a season;
No community creator and no championship creator.
That’s what makes me so optimistic about this game. Big Ant have such a solid base in RLL3 and RLL4 to develop a union game.
RLL4 was probably one patch away from greatness, if the passing, and more specifically the ridiculous amount of unrealistic interceptions was fixed, along with the tackling (not being able to choose what kind of tackle you made) made a bit better.
I’ve no doubt this game will release with some issues, but as long as the devs are willing to work with the community, as they have with Cricket 24 and take on board/fix these issues, this could be the best rugby game ever.
Now we just need a release, which appears to be the biggest issue!
